ChorePilot

Your house and family chore board as Hermes tools, through ChorePilot's own MCP server on this machine, the LAN or Tailscale. Runs appliances (lights, climate, dishwasher/washer/dryer, sprinklers, vacuum and more via Home Assistant, Home Connect, MQTT or a simulator) and keeps a rotating chore board that devices verify. ChorePilot's policy decides every call: water/heat actions wait for the person's own yes in Telegram or the ChorePilot dashboard, kids' requests go to a parent's approval queue, and unlocking, opening the garage and disarming are never available to an agent. Bundles the chorepilot:household skill.

Good to know before installing

Each tool call sends HTTP requests with the bearer token in CHOREPILOT_TOKEN to the user's own ChorePilot server at CHOREPILOT_URL, and the plugin also lists that server's tools once at every Hermes start (plain http only to loopback, private, Tailscale or .local/.lan/.ts.net addresses); chorepilot_call runs any device or chore tool the token's person may use (lights, climate, vacuum, locking and more) without a Hermes approval prompt, with ChorePilot's own policy deciding, so water/heat actions wait up to two minutes for that person's yes in Telegram or the ChorePilot dashboard, kids' requests go to a parent, and unlocking, opening the garage and disarming are never available; no other network calls, no files read outside the plugin, no background processes, no telemetry, stdlib only.

How to install

  1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs (this one needs CHOREPILOT_URL, CHOREPILOT_TOKEN), then asks whether to turn it on.
    hermes plugins install chorepilot
  2. Said no? Turn it on later:
    hermes plugins enable chorepilot
  3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
